HAPPY HALLOWEEN FROM PHANTOMARINE! 🎃

Recfieved computer back. had to fix a bunch of things but im back to working on pages. and possibly work on the cover for Chapter 7 cause i really needed to get that done

My pcs in the shop, time for some weird life fact i find funny. My dad has a 40 year old dragon tree that my mom named "Sideshow Bob".

Recently, dad tried to clone Bob(tbh he been trying for years) and he gave me one of the clones. Hope I dont kill it and it grows as big as the OG tree.

After the fear of losing these due to Canada post's strike. They both arrived safely

Royal is going on a 3 week hiatus. I have to bring myself to touch my computer again after a hacker incident...

To anyone wondering why i didnt post yesterday, something really really really stupid happened

So today is doomsday for this place.

One of my biggest goals was to eventually get nsfw fanart for my comic. I encourage it. I still encourage it. Despite bluesky shitting in the vents and making us clear out.

So where is everyone going to now?

...um... Canadian Thanksgiving? i say its a day to give thanks for giving me food, dad :D

Come and Check out the #webcomic Royal: The Prince of Magic on Fables!... the author is Anishinabek~

fables.pro/a/series/roy...

i am still really glad i didnt end up printing vol 1 of Royal this year cause uh..... canada has a mail problem. and that problem is going to make me lose two indie books in transit. yes im still very much pissed off

Today in Crystal's crazy life.
I got a book today by a fellow person here and it was damaged... remind me to stop ordering books from amazon.... even though Indigo is getting just as bad with their packaging...

two. ordered two physical indie comics and... Canada post goes on strike...

should add that I have been eyeing your book for a while. expect me to read it.

i hate that so much, people can be asses. I've been there. was once told "200 pages!? I'm not reading that garbage!" and the person who introduced me to this guy told me to relax cause "That's just how he is." I'm not friends with either of them.

I dont know if i menrioned it before but im debating whether to take Royal off Webtoons. Mostly cause I get no engagement on there, that and as a boycott for the shit they've been doing.

Puppies.

you ever just sit around and wonder what you're doing? then you realise you been staring at a wall for an hour?... yeah.... das me...

he kept falling off the shelf and hitting me in the head. he also kept tempting the dog when he did fall down without me noticing. that's his crimes XD

(Weird way to recommend a comic but here we go!)
bought that little guy around a year ago. he's from a webcomic called #phantomarine by @phantomarine.bsky.social
he has been air-jailed for his crimes, he knows what he did.

Everyone i know are finishing their comics and Im still getting started QwQ

Congrats on finishing your project.

Well everyone, Tumblr was the first to fall from this, then A.I Dungeon, now Bluesky is starting the decent. time to find a new website. soon the only place you'll be able to find artists in general are on straight up porn sites cause it looks like thats where its going.

Good one, dumbasses.

everyones posting their NSFW stuff and im sitting here wishing i had the guts Q^Q

was told i made a point but the point is already being weaponized with the whole forcing to show IDs thing. the thing that got me kicked off Patreon.... somebody kill me :D

omg writing that whole thing mentally exhausted me... hope everyones having a good day regardless

Social media is the worst thing to expose a kid's developing mind to. Social media should be an adults only space that shouldn't have to be censored for under developed, little, Ipad babies! PARENTS, IPAD RAISING ONLY RAISES KIDS TO BE DEPRESSED, DUMB FUCKING ADULTS! KEEP THEM OFF SOCIAL MEDIA!!

Guess the point i was ultimately getting at is if they refuse to censor violence for the kids, they have no right trying to erase porn from existence. there's ratings on things for a reason. its the parents that should be MONITORING what their kids see. ALSO kids should not be on social media.

I never had the talk because by the time i should have, the general knowledge was already. i actually had no interest in sexual stuff as a young teen. the way i explored sexuality was drawing. Yes i was drawing nsfw and I never showed anyone, I kept it to myself.

That was already a stupid fight from back in the day cause oh i donno? Parents wanted to avoid raising their kids, again. Sure, i mentioned how my parents let me see some raunchy movies but, especially my dad, he didnt beat around the bush if I asked a question.

The US specifically are more concerned about the 14 year old who may be figuring out hes gay or trans and not about the one that's killing neighborhood pets for kicks and have detailed maps of their school and routes. and NO im not saying ban violence in media.

There is an old video by Stephen Georg on his vlog channel where he had his friend proofread his essay for a college class the subject of his essay is exactly this. How the Western government is more worried about kids seeing sexual content but not violence.

Seeing two character's heads swell and explode in space was more traumatizing than all the Rated R comedies my dad stupidly let me watch (one being Youth and Revolt) My biggest issue as a kid was violence. I couldn't handle seeing death or dying. (hated SBSP's Tea at the Treedome as a kid too.)

I recall traumatizing me in any way were the Treehouse of Horror episodes. two specific ones i remember, I'm 31 and still skip these. the parody of that one Twilight Zone episode with the creature on the wing of the plane and the Y2K segment.
